Topic should say 'tasiest'/best protein powder flavors/brands ;)
_________________________

Going to purchase a new protein powder, but since I like to mix it as a smoothie, I kind of want it to be my 'dessert' for the day.

Any recommendations on a yummy Whey Protein brand/flavor? :) I'm open to other Proteins as well, ideally not Soy.

Has anyone tried the Cookies n Cream, Orange Creame or Cinnamon Bun flavors or are those not so good? :)

    I think the GNC's AMP Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60 in chocolate is pretty dang tasty. It's super tasty straight up with water. Also good with almond milk in shakes.

    I have the Body Fortress Whey Protein in Cookies n Cream each morning for breakfast. Mix with some unsweetened almond milk and it's pretty tasty to me. It meets my needs and I usually buy it at Walmart.

    Cellucor by far! Compared to Cellucor ON is like sweet dirt. Coming from someone who has them both. Also sun warrior is really good.

    I use the chocolate-flavored powder from Body Fortress. You can get it either at Walmart or Kroger. I use one scoop plus one teaspoon of instant coffee and mix it with water. The coffee is supposed to help boost your metabolism (and it gives you a little caffeine).

    MuscleMilk lite with vanilla

    If you have a blender, you can add yogurt, banana, or other fruit if you like. I think it improves the taste.

    Many of the brands I just can not tolerate

    Go to the health food store and purchase the flavor in 1 serving packets to try out before wasting money on the nasty tasting ones. I have had some so nasty all you can do is throw your money in the trash. Vitamin shoppe has some 1 serving packets to try of different flavors and brands.............hope you find what your looking for.

    Favorite protein powder: Tera's Whey (I mix it with plain unsweetened almond milk and use it with my cereal) http://www.teraswhey.com/our-products/organic-whey-en.html

    My favorite meal replacement powder: Vega One (Blended with 8oz plain unsweetened almond milk, two handfuls baby spinach, one banana) drank as a smoothie

    I like Body Fortress Strawberry but my favorite, so far, is their vanilla flavor. Delicious!! This morning I added blackberries and pineapple chucks along with some water and ice. Best smoothie I've had in awhile!

    I'm currently using Vitamin Shoppe's Bodytech Whey Tech protein in Vanilla. I know that sounds a little bland but for what it is it's pretty decent tasting (kinda like Vanilla bean). Mixed with water it's 90 cal, 17g of protein. I like to add a half of a scoop to my greek yogurt smoothies.
